QTE:eek:

Re: HIV?
 

I read about it on AKA AVE back this summer in one of their Celebrity Dish's. It broke my heart. I was hoping for a 3rd CD.

IDEAL, we both sliiiiiiiiPIN, we forgot about
THE GYRLZ
BLACKGIRL
Father MC

CHICO UPDATE
 

I read on Flo Anthony's site last week hat CHICO is now saved and will be making more positive uplifiting music.

I miss SWV, they helped a sista in a lot of relationships.

Xscape need to come baaack. That last CD was SLAMMING!!

Shanice and comedian/actor Flex Alexander got married back in February 2001 and are expecting their first baby this month. I saw a picture of the two of them (with Shanice looking about eight months pregnant) in Jet magazine a couple of months ago.

BTW, Chuckie Booker was touring with his relative Barry White at one time. I had his TAPE with Games etc. on it

Jade

Yea, what happened to him?
 

Ditto.
My favorite song was "Not a Perfect Man..."

What about...
 

Anita Baker? I know she left the scene to raise a family, but she really needs to put out another cd. I'm a big fan of hers.

And speaking of Xscape, I heard, on the radio, last week that they are making a comeback, but Kandi is no longer a part of the group.

Re: What about...
 

anita baker was supposed to release an album later this year, but had some sort of problems where she had to rerecord the album. it's supposed to be released next year.

Re: HIV?
 

About Intro's lead singer and HIV, I forget his name at this time, but unfortunately he passed away from complications from AIDS last week, or week before last.

If I am not mistaken, I think that it was announced that they had a little girl.:)

MAMA NOOOOOOOOOO
 

Kenny Greene, the "Come Inside" man. MAMA NOOOOOOOOOO

Re: MAMA NOOOOOOOOOO
 

Yes Kenny Greene that was his name. Yeah I heard it maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago. I couldn't believe it when I heard it either. I mean I knew that it was coming, because word was he was really, really sick, but when you hear of someone passing it still hits you kind of hard even if you knew it was coming.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO:
TONY TERRY
SOUNDS OF BLACKNESS
GLENN JONES
NONA GAYE
HIGH FIVE
LISA FISCHER
CHANTAY SAVAGE

Tony Terry has a CD out now.
Sounds of Blackness, focuses on gospel music now

Its so funny that people mentioned B Angie B and Gregory Abbott, because I just downloaded some of their old songs a few days ago.

As far as I knew, Sounds of Blackness was always a gospel group. They are still going strong...eventhough that lead singer woman left them a few years ago.
Tony Terry is doing gospel music,too. I forgot the name of the choir...but he did a song called "If You're Gonna Worry, Don't Pray." I love that song and I'm glad to see Tony back. I used to love "When I'm With You."

Gregory Abbott I still have Love you Down on 45! telling my age,

The Doc was in a accident and his vocal chords were damaged!

I really miss him, you can catch him in cameo's of Dr. Dre and Snoop's videos.

Tonya Blunt was a real One Hit Wonder!

UTFO! Girl you must be in my age range!

Educated Rapper, Kangol Kid and Dr. ICE! :) I am having flashbacks of my youth!

Soul II Soul, I used to play Keep on Movin, when I was down and out! I went to their concert back in the day! They opened with a fashion show instead of another artist performing! :)

Re: I MISS DEM BOYS
 

THE CD JUST CAME and I am Jaaaaaaaamming to it!!
You don't have to say a word!! Just smile for me!!

Re: Where Are They Now?
 

Remember Total had that song with I some DJ , but their probably somewhere cracked out and broke.
I just saw a old Troop video on BET last Saturday, damn did we all look like that?

Video Soul Gold 1995
 

What happened to SOUL for REAL?? I had their first TAPE and I wore it out.


Now Donnie Simpson is sitting on the couch giggling and trying to get his old school mack on with Adina "Freak Like Me" Howard.

I think their name way YNV? They also sang Chocolate High which sampled Mary Jane. I wonder what happened to them too.

Tonya Blunt was neglected by Bad Boy, I heard she recently changed labels.
